As of last Friday, it was still in mock-up mode. If I were to speculate, I would say that releasing more pictures now would just confuse people and spur more questions than answers, especially as some of the things on the mock-up are clearly going to be changed before a production model is finalized. It might also leave people feeling let down if features that are implied by photos are not included in the end result.

Of course, it may be that Mr. Bihn is trying to teach the world patience and has chosen his own consumers as among the first to benefit from his instruction.

That makes sense.

Well, Mr. Bihn might not have much luck with teaching me patience... if I haven't learned it yet, I don't think its in me :)

Now that is funny.

I wish I could tell you guys more right now: the bag is so cool. There should be pictures and the ability to pre-order in ...I'll say two weeks.

Now that's just cruel :)

I'll almost certainly be among the pre-orderers (is "pre-orderers" a real word?)

Darcy, do you have any idea what the color combos could be?

I'm hoping for black with a solar interior.

We'll definitely do either Black/Solar or Steel/Solar..

Black! Black! (/solar) :)

Noted...!

Update: pictures and pre-order may come as soon as Monday...

Fantastic! I'd vote steel/solar. I expect I too will be a pre-orderer (it's a real word now!!)

Steel with Steel interior.

All my Dyneema accessories are Steel, except one tall Yarn Stuff Sack in Solar. The interior of my Swifts are Steel Dyneema, I love Steel Dyneema, I want more of it. :)


I like the fact that I know what is my TB bags but nobody can peak, the way they can with high contrast Solar.

I'd definitely pre-order a steel/solar! Actually, I'd probably pre-order no matter what the color, but I'd especially love to see steel/solar in photos (hint hint?). I think the steel/solar would avoid the bumblebee look of black/solar, but that's just my opinion.

As soon as Monday? I'll be checking every few hours, then!

What is this "holiday" you speak of?

I think he means Easter Monday...
